About market, TAPE is marking time for holidays and low volume. Looks like after Christmas on Tuesday, we may resume some buying, although we may have low volume until after New Year. It has been a very good market for many, so a rest from Wall & Broad is overdue.Do not read too much into low volume and flat market, we are trading in a very narrow range, which may continue for two more weeks. Stay with your high comfort stocks.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.
